The seller must sign the back of the original Georgia Certificate of Title to transfer ownership. Every owner listed on the front must sign as a seller. Once you have the signed title, take it to the Berrien County Tax Commissioner’s Office in Nashville. They will process the paperwork and put the car in your name.
Ask to see the seller’s government-issued ID before you hand over any cash. Check that the name on their ID matches the name printed on the title. You must also check that the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the paper title exactly matches the VIN on the car’s dashboard and the driver-side door frame.
A lien means a bank or loan company still has a claim on the car. Look at the front of the Georgia title to find any active lienholders. If you see a lender listed, the seller must hand you an official lien release document from that bank. You cannot get a clear title in your name without it.
We suggest getting a full vehicle history report from KarKiosk to see the car's past clearly. This report helps you find hidden accidents, spot salvage titles, and see if the car has flood damage.
Yes. You should always hire a local mechanic you trust to look at the car before you buy it. Have an auto repair shop in Nashville, Alapaha, or Enigma put the car on a lift for a full check. This helps you find bad engines, weak transmissions, or thin brakes before they become your costly problem.
Yes. Berrien County features many rural, agricultural routes and unpaved country roads. We highly recommend asking your mechanic to inspect the vehicle's suspension, shocks, and undercarriage for heavy wear, thick dirt buildup, or damage caused by rough driving conditions.
